3. The thing is people shouldn't be

in dire straights in this country, we had jobs, homes, and we did it proudly..but the Republicans and the Rich did this to all of the middle class...Bernie is right, that's why I support him.

4. Happy story.....but

how many other employees making "peanut wages" are struggling to survive while he picks one out of the swirling sewer?

It just drives me insane. Business owners are almost always interested in "the bottom line"; making bigger profits every year; putting away more golden eggs and counting them in their dark kitchens when they want to feel good; while their employees slide down the mud hill cities they live in.

Isn't it time that owners- Waltons - start "profit sharing and raising wages so THEY can advance their lives through hard work and dedication to "the masters"? Capitalism has turned into shit at the top.

6. Exactly. That's why I think this show is propaganda

...intended to make corporate types look good in an economic downturn they created.

7. Ditto. I didn't hear "I'm restructuring pay scales so everyone gets a living wage."

In this case, maybe the guy got it and is doing that. Hope so.

9. I HATE this tv show

It's an hour long commercial scripted for the "boss " to pedal his crappy business.

5. I may be a bit too cynical, but I find it very hard to believe that Undercover Boss isn't phony.

It certainly has moments make you hope its real. However, almost all reality tv shows are just the land of make-believe trying to tug on the ole heartstrings.

8. That article has really interesting links - Thanks

Like the PR company that advises their clients to get on Undercover Boss to "propel their business".
